People are becoming increasingly lonely
People are becoming increasingly lonely and are unable to relate to one another. Yet we have access to more people than ever before. What's going on?
Is it technology? Is social media replacing our sense of community with the empty calories of the sweet, sweet For You feed?
Or maybe it’s the deterioration of the nuclear family—fewer kids are being born and being raised by fewer parents?
Or is it the lack of religion in public life? Or the geographic exodus from small towns and communities towards big anonymous cities? Or the economic inequality and complete loss of work/life balance?
These are questions that I—and renowned journalist and author David Brooks—unpack together as we nose dive into the social and emotional disconnect of millions of people.
Need lessons on how to talk to the barista making your coffee? Looking to build a better relationship with Gary from across the fence? This episode won’t make you a master of communication overnight, but it’s a fascinating conversation packed with useful insight from beginning to end.
Listen to it.
